Background:
The Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) institutions are increasing development of training programs in community-engaged research (CEnR) to support translational science.
Methods:
This study sampled posters at CTSA national meetings to identify CEnR training approaches, topics, and outcomes.
Results:
Qualitative analysis of 30 posters revealed training topics and outcomes focused primarily on CEnR capacity building, overcoming barriers, systems change, and sustainability.
Conclusion:
Further research should focus on development and results of CTSA CEnR training program metrics.
